“Since day one, we’ve been designing functional, forward-thinking outdoor product that helps people get out into the elements,” says Birgit Freundorfer, senior design director at Adidas Terrex. “It’s a vision shared by Keita Ikeuchi and Mihoko Mori at and wander, who continue to establish themselves as one of the leading outdoor labels in the world. Functionality is always at the brand’s core but their creative vision to deliver reimagined garments for an easy hike is why we wanted to collaborate with them. This is a collection that fits in everywhere, from streets to trails, while remaining committed to exploring more sustainable material solutions.”
The And Wander x Adidas Terrex collection will be released on Nov. 1 at Adidas.com and at Adidas retailers. The hiking boots will retail for $250.
